Passports include a map of where events are located and can be stamped by each participating activity and turned in by July 19 to enter for prizes.

Some of the prizes include a $25 Swains gift card, a three-hour rental of the Loomis cabin, tokens for free Welly’s ice cream, a three-month membership to the Olympic Peninsula YMCA, a gift bag from the Port Angeles Farmers Market, a BMX bike and 12-month membership to Lincoln Park BMX, a family pass to “String and Shadow” at the Port Angeles Fine Arts Center and a 20-seat box at a Port Angeles Lefties baseball game.
